Testo January's Child - Michelle Lewis
Testo della canzone January's Child (Michelle Lewis), tratta dall'album Female Singer-Songwriters
On the coldest night of the year
You start to rethink Hell
'Cause all you hear is a cruel wind moaning
Fire engine bells
See, this family had no heat
So they built a bonfire in their living room
They thought they could keep it a secret
But those flames caught on
And soon the whole building went up
I see one fireman turn to another and say
"That's quite a blaze we got here
Yeah, well, they're warm for now"
And the fires burn on the east side
While the west is hunkering down
And I'm in search of comfort
But he is elusive, working in midtown
Oh, it's negative something degrees
Oh, I think the whole world may freeze
We'll be low for a while
January's child
January's child
It's the coldest night of the year
And I've decided Hell is on 29th Street
Yeah, the car's jammed on 10th Avenue
'Cause the girls all go on sale just to get inside
"Hey honey, you want a ride?"
Oh, they'll give handjobs for a dollar
They'll go down on you for ten if your car has heat
Hell is 29th Street
And these few degrees are lonely
They cling to me for life
Holding on to a dead man's blanket
Lost dog's fur and a hooker's exposed thighs
Oh, it hasn't been sunny for weeks
Oh, the tears raise on my cheeks
Been this low for a while
January's child
And when he finds me on the steps outside
I'm half frozen in ice
So he digs me out and he drags me in
And he cuts like a surgeon through my skin
Into warm blood
Melts me down and gives me love
When I tell him I want to die
That January boy laughs and says
"Okay, Snow Queen, now here's a match
Why don't you try?"
Oh, it's negative something degrees
Oh, I think the whole world may freeze
"We'll be alright in a while"
Says January's child
Says January's child
Ooh, we'll be alright in a while
Says January's child
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna, it's gonna be alright
It's gonna, it's gonna be alright
Alright, alright in a while
Says January's child
It's gonna be alright, gonna be alright
Hey yeah, says January's child
